Growing in Unity Day Five

So sad that today is my final day as the Growing in Unity Gal... I have had so much fun this week sharing projects with you! Thank you so much for your kind words and comments on my projects this week. I hope you will consider following my blog if you don't already.

For my final card this week I am still using the same pattern paper pad by Fancy Pants titled Parkbench.

I decided to use this wonderful butterfly image from the SMAK kit from July 2012. I have to say that the size of the images in this particular kit are among my favorites for cards as well as other mixed media projects!!!

For this card I started by covering my cardbase with all the leftover pattern paper scraps from my other projects from the week. I inked the edges of the pieces to give them some depth. I then stamped the butterfly image onto white cardstock. Using the same Copic marker colors I've been using all week I colored the image and background. I then mounted the image onto a scrap of black cardstock and then used foam tape to adhere it to my card base.

I love how it turned out and it really did complete the collection of cards I created for the week.

Here is an image of all the cards from my entire week together:

Awesome SMAK kit that you used... love that gorgeous butterfly stamp! Your coloring looks great along with the pretty paper choices!Thanks for a fun GIU week! I've enjoyed all your creations, and seeing how you used the paper collection you chose also!

Gorgeous butterfly collage stamp! Love the papers you used! I enjoyed seeing your creations all week! The cards look so nice displayed there togethe! The colour combo you used makes these look like a set - maybe it was intentional - well done!

I just love the blue and yellow together. In fact, I didn't realize that all of your cards this week used the same colors. When you put them all together in that last photo, I realized, and saw how gorgeous they are all in a grouping. SO very pretty...
